Used to lower high cholesterol and triglycerides (dyslipidaemia) and to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke and other cardiovascular events, especially in patients with risk factors such as diabetes, hypertension or existing heart disease.
How It Works
Atorvastatin is an HMG‑CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) that reduces cholesterol production in the liver. It lowers LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and triglycerides and can modestly increase HDL (“good”) cholesterol, reducing plaque formation risk.
Directions for Use
Tablet: Take as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food. Continue a cholesterol-lowering diet and lifestyle changes; do not stop without medical advice.
Do not use in active liver disease or unexplained persistent elevation of liver enzymes. Seek urgent care for unexplained muscle pain/tenderness/weakness especially with fever or dark urine (risk of myopathy/rhabdomyolysis). Use with caution in patients with liver impairment, heavy alcohol use, hypothyroidism, kidney problems, or history of statin-related muscle issues; periodic liver function tests may be advised. Not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
